Hello,You need better lighting, like the model. She has flood lights on both sides of her nose, and Photoshop to fix the actual picture after it was taken. Otherwise, hers would look like yours. Best of luck!
Hello and thank you for your question. Based on yourphotograph, you may benefit from a tip refining rhinoplasty. Your surgeon canaccomplish this by trimming, suturing, and reshaping the cartilage in yourlower nose. Cartilage grafts may also be used to help improve tip refinement. Make sure you specifically look at before and afterpictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeonand not just a computer animation system. The most importantaspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seekconsultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluateyou in person.Best wishes and good luck.Richard G. Reish, M.D.Harvard-trained plastic surgeon
Rhinoplasty is a surgery to change the shape of the nose for breathing or appearance. Many patients bring photographs to their consultation. This is a great way for patients to communicate their aesthetic goals. One important factor to consider is to evaluating the eyes and not the nose in the photograph. When you look at the eyes you can see if there is single flash or double flash. Studio professional lighting often use multiple lights to balance the shadows. Contouring make-up and photoshop do the rest. When you come for consultation, I take both single and double flash photos. I also take photos while smiling and frowning to see how your nose changes position. Lastly, I used 3D computer simulation to get on the same page as my patient regarding their aesthetic goals. We can discuss appropriate changes that will produce a safe and happy result. Safety comes first.
A thorough in-person examination is required to make a determination about a surgical procedure, since the second picture is most likely been airbrushed. Digital computer imaging performed in the office setting would also be helpful to understand what can be accomplished with the surgical procedure of your nose on your facial features.

It's difficult to answer your question based on 1 limited photograph and without a physical exam. In general, a prominent or overly high nasal bridge can be smoothed down during rhinoplasty. It's also important to know that the nose must be treated as a whole structure that must be harmonious with the rest of your facial features, and this includes the width and shape of one's nostrils, nasal tip, nasal height, etc. Seek out a consultation with a surgeon (Facial Plastic, General Plastic) who performs lots of rhinoplasty to undergo a detailed exam and have a thorough discussion about your goals and whether they can be attained. Good luck!
